The part number for the Craftool I am using is a number D74400 marked CRAFTOOL USA. The leather maul I like and use is made by Maul Master and is the economically priced mauls sold by The Weaver Leather Company.

The part number for the maul I use in this YouTube Video is 65-2334 and it weighs 2 lbs and has 1-5/8" striking surface. I also have the lighter Maul Master II and it weighs 22 oz. and it has the same width striking surface.

I use the lighter maul for beveling and background work on my tooling and caving projects. I start off by marking a 3/8" channel and cut the border with my Barry King Leather Tools swivel knife. I like cutting a border like this because it gives depth to my stamping design.

Have patience with this leather tool and practice on some scrap leather before you do your actual leathercraft project. A running border stamp like this works and looks good on saddles, belts, guitar straps, billfolds, purses and many other custom leather projects.
